• 5.6775 milliliters
• 567.75 milliliters
• 5,677.5 milliliters
• 56,775 milliliters
To convert gallons to milliliters, we need to use the conversion factors given:
1 gallon = 3.785 liters
1 liter = 1,000 milliliters
First, we convert gallons to liters by multiplying the number of gallons by 3.785:
1.5 gallons * 3.785 liters/gallon = 5.6775 liters
Then, we convert liters to milliliters by multiplying the number of liters by 1,000:
5.6775 liters * 1,000 milliliters/liter = 5,677.5 milliliters
Therefore, 1.5 gallons is equal to 5,677.5 milliliters.
The answer is: 5,677.5 milliliters (option C)
